consulate in benghazi, libya. mr. chairman, thanks very much for coming in. is it true you're calling on the united states ambassador to the united nations susan rice, to resign because of the comments she made on those five sunday talk shows? >> yes, wolf. i believe that this was such a failure of foreign policy message and leadership, such a misstatement of facts at the time and for her to go on all of those shows and in effect the spokesman for the world and be misinforming the american people and our allies and countries around the world, to me somebody has to pay the price for this. we have too much things go wrong and everyone forgets about it the next day. i think we have to send a clear message. on such an issue where an american ambassador was killed where by all the evidence at the time the presumption had to be it was terrorism. i can see why if they wanted to say -- whether it was intentionally or unintentionally and to show the significance of that, i believe she should resign, yes. >> because there is a statement that the spokesperson, the direc

these publics show those standards were simply not met in benghazi. we asked the state department for the classification of the consulate, whether it met those security standards. if they didn't, were waivers signed by the state department in this case. >>shepard: did democrats appear to be satisfied with the explanation they are getting from the white house? >>reporter: the senate foreign relations committee sent a bipartisan letter to the deputy secretary of state requesting more information on the security posture in benghazi. what the state department was doing to mitigate the threat, as well. and how much the libyan governments and the us knew about the terrorist situation. >> all members of the foreign phone, democrats and republicans, are asking the administration for answers. this now is something that certainly could never be colored as "partisan." these are concerns of senators and house members what want to know what has happened. >>reporter: this bipartisan letter does not make any reference to the youtube video as inspiring that attack. >

what about this letter that you have sent asking for answers about what went wrong in benghazi? >> well i have the letter here with me. i could show it to you. i wouldn't change anything. let me be crystal clear as chairman of that committee, and i hope this gets out to other people who are listening about this. >> and i should point out i've got the letter here too. we've gone through it. >> republicans are working overtime to try to exploit a very normal, run of the course, admin strative letter that we agreed to on a bipartisan basis in our committee, simply to get some additional questions put in front of the state department that are part of their already existing investigation. this is not a challenge. it is nothing new. it is not something out of the ordinary. and i agreed to do it as a matter of bipartisanship because we thought these were important questions that people ought to be examining. >> but aren't you concerned, senator? >> secretary of state -- >> aren't you concerned with the way they handled this? >> i am concerned with the way the republicans are exploiting
